And that is why it is known as "Two Buck Chuck".

That's worth a trip to Gainsville!! Wine and olive oil....doesn't get much better. :)

Also the best balsamic vinegar.
And go to the website (traderjoes.com) and click on products and guides, then click on quick meals, you will see a long list. ALL of them are good.

Heard today that Trader Joes is opening a warehouse in Orlando. That means more stores in Florida.

Let's start an E-mail campaign to Trader Joe's to let them know there is a great market for them here in The Villages

Unless, it is to purchase Two Buck Chuck, am wondering what other goodies are there which I haven't discovered. For example I find great smoked salmon in Cotsco and value for money.

I hear they sell a really good TOXIC peanut butter.

We've been doing that off and on for years. At least it got them into Florida - Sarasota, Tarpon Springs, and now Gainesville. Maybe they are looking into The Villages.

We have been emailing and asking Trader Joe's to come to the Villages as well. Our "organic" produce options are slim in this area. We joined a local Organic Wholesale Co-op. Every two weeks, we put our order in online Sunday evening of whatever we like and pickup Tuesday. Its great because there are so many options of organic items, spices, oils, produce, meats, cheese and thousands of other items to choose from besides produce, all at CHEAPER prices than Publix. Its the next best thing from Trader Joe's!

I'm surprised Trader Joe's doesn't have a store near the Villages. We have one up here on Cape Cod and my wife really likes it.
Market Basket is another big favorite. They opened one just as you come on to Cape Cod and it's a big hit!! (might have mentioned this before)
